    What Is Your...

    ...Genre?

    Do you write romance? Action? Horror? Crime thrillers? Westerns with elements of Science Fiction? Comedy with a tragic twist?

    What is your genre as a writer? (If you wield different styles and genres all the time, then what is the genre of your current work in progress?)

    Nah. I've kind of been saying that about my work for a while.

    Fantasy, chick lit, parody, and sometimes even a little literary fiction.
    “When writing a novel, that's pretty much entirely what life turns into: House burned down. Car stolen. Cat exploded. Did 1500 easy words, so all in all it was a pretty good day.”

    Still can't decide between sci-fi and dark fantasy. I go back and forth between things all the time. . .

    Fantasy, Science Fiction or... moody vignettes? The vignettes/short stories could be described as literary, in some ways, but they also fall into the Speculative Fiction genre; which as we all know is what Fantasy and Science Fiction can be grouped under.

    Speculative Fiction all the way, woo!

    If I ever turn into an author like Ian McEwan, someone needs to slap me with a branch, cut using a herring, and say "Ni!" at me, until I beg for mercy and I write something more fun.
    Substitute "damn" every time you're inclined to write "very"; your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be.
    - Mark Twain


    However great a man's natural talent may be, the act of writing cannot be learned all at once.
    - Jean-Jacques Rousseau

    Horror. I figure if I have to have nightmares every night, with images of Hell and the end of the world, then I might as well write it down and scare the s**t out of everyone else. Seems to be working so far. . .

    I have always had what is known as a butterfly mind, writing is the constant, everything else varies it seems.

    Science fiction and dark/high fantasy. My current work is the latter, and the grittiest thing i've ever written.
    For all Eternity I will write, for all the worlds soon to be created......
